Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
DOLEJŠÍ, Andrea
This bachelor thesis is dedicated to a sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). A theoretical part of the thesis describes the history and the latest findings about SIDS, its causes and risk factors. It also summarizes midwifery education within the prevention of SIDS and cardiopulmonary resuscitation of infants. A research part of the bachelor thesis deals with the awareness of SIDS and resuscitation of newborns and infants among women. Two research goals were set in advance. The first aim of the bachelor thesis was to determine a level of SIDS knowledge of pregnant women and mothers of children up to 1 year of age. The second objective was to determine a level of knowledge of pregnant women and mothers of children up to the age of 1 on basic resuscitation of newborns and infants. At the same time, two hypotheses were established. Hypothesis 1: There are differences in SIDS awareness among primiparas and secundiparas women. Hypothesis 2: There are differences in awareness of newborn and infant resuscitation between primiparas and secondiparas. The research was conducted through a social network, using a survey of 170 pregnant women and mothers of children under the age of 1 year. In order to achieve the set goals and verify the hypotheses, a quantitative method was chosen. Anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted in order to collect data. Results of the research are graphically processed and supplemented with a verbal commentary. Verification of hypotheses was performed using a chi-squared statistical test. By analyzing the data obtained, the hypotheses were confirmed by the statistical chi-squared test. Null hypotheses were tested against alternative hypotheses at 5% significance. The chi-squared value of the test was compared with the signifikance level. For hypothesis 1, the chi-squared test was determined 0.6%, and for hypothesis 2 the result was 1%. The results show that primiparas are more informed about SIDS and problems of newborn/infant resuscitation than secondiparas. Sufficient awareness of SIDS was found within 34% of the primiparas and 30% of the secondiparas. Sufficient awareness of newborn/infant resuscitation was demonstrated by 23% of the primiparas and 12% of the secondiparas. This bachelor thesis may serve as an information material for students of health care field and midwifery, or as a presentation at a specialized seminar.
